Oil Pulling
What is Oil Pulling?
Oil Pulling is a safe, simple, cheap and gentle procedure who's
benefits range from bringing health to your mouth and ridding your
mouth of harmful toxins and bacteria, to a method that cures and
prevents diseases and extends your healthy life.
Studies are on-going, but the procedure is gaining more and more
popularity as people are finding success and positive results with oil
pulling. We will explain the details of oil pulling later in this article, but
the basics involve pulling and swishing 1 tablespoon of Coconut,
Olive, Grapeseed or some other quality oil around your mouth and
through your teeth for up to 20 Min., then spitting. The therapy is simple and completely
harmless, as you do not ingest medication or drugs.
Oil pulling was practiced in Ayurvedic medicine. Modern oil pulling was introduced in 1992
by Dr. F. Karach, MD. Dr. Karach claimed that this treatment will achieve remarkable results
with illnesses like migraine headaches, bronchitis, diseased teeth, arterio thrombosis,
chronic blood disorders such as leukemia, arthritis and related illnesses, neuro-
physiological paralysis, eczema, gastro enteritis, peritonitis, heart disease, kidney disease,
meningitis, and woman's hormonal disorders are completely eliminated from the organism.
Dr. Karach's claims that oil pulling heals the whole body in perpetuity. He sites results with
terminal diseases such as cancer, aids and chronic infections.
According to the African Journal of Microbiology Research, oil pulling is an effective
defense against the bacteria associated with dental caries (tooth decay). Studies show that
it has also been beneficial in the elimination of bleeding gums, the fastening of loose teeth
and the visible whitening of the teeth.
Many advocates of oil pulling suggest safflower, sunflower or vegetable oil, but more and
more studies and successes are finding higher quality oils are more effective. The anti-
bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal properties of whole, extra virgin coconut oil makes it the
perfect choice for oil pulling and certainly is gaining popularity.
The use of essential oils added to the primary pulling oil is slow to find it's way to most oil
pulling enthusiasts because of the lack of superior essential oils that are CPTG quality.
But as people discover how a CPTG essential oil can benefit oil pulling, essential oils will
become more and more popular in oil pulling.
Does maintaining a healthy mouth help you have a healthy body?
Up-and-coming science suggests that advanced gum disease can be linked to diabetes,
cardiovascular problems, and pre-term birth.
The Early stages of gum disease is gingivitis-which affects a majority of all adults at some
point in their lives, and most don't even know it.
Many theories exist and more studies are underway to explore the connection between
good oral health and overall health. The conclusions lead us to know that a healthy mouth
leads only to good things.
Lets explore these connections more.
Persistent halitosis (bad breath) is often a sign of a more serious problem in your mouth.
Poor oral hygiene and gum disease are the primary causes of halitosis.

It is estimated that around 50% of adults have some form of gingivitis. Gingivitis, if left
untreated, may progress to a more serious condition called periodontitis.
Besides weakening your teeth to the point of loosing them, studies suggest that
periodontitis may affect the health of your entire body.
On going studies suggests that periodontitis may be associated with diabetes, heart
disease, and numerous other health issues.
Heart Disease and Heart Attack
Studies suggest that advanced gum disease may be a contributing factor to heart disease.
The theory is that gum disease or periodontitis, allow oral germs to enter the bloodstream.
These germs may affect the heart by attaching to the fatty plaques in your arteries,
contributing to the formation of clots. According to this theory, these clots, in turn, can
cause the restriction of blood flow (a.k.a. atherosclerosis) which may lead to a heart attack.
Stroke
On going studies also suggest that advanced gum disease may be associated with the
presence of blocked arteries in the brain, a condition which may lead to a stroke.
Further studies advise that gum disease, if allowed to progress, may allow germs to enter
the bloodstream. These germs may attach to the fatty plaques in your arteries, contributing
to the formation of clots. According to this theory, these clots, in turn, can cause the
restriction of blood flow and, in some cases, a stroke.
Diabetes
Emerging science also suggests that diabetes and gum disease may be linked. Not only
does diabetes increase your chance of gum infection, but gum infection may make
diabetes harder to control.
Diabetics are significantly more likely to develop gum disease because of the way diabetes
slows the body's natural healing process. Research also suggests that advanced gum
disease may have an adverse effect on blood-sugar levels-potentially making diabetes
treatment less effective.

Take the oils into the mouth but do not swallow it. Move the oil slowly in the mouth as
rinsing or swishing and as Dr Karach puts it; " sip, suck and pull through the teeth" for
fifteen to twenty minutes. This process thoroughly mixes the oils with saliva. Swishing
activates the enzymes and the enzymes draw toxins out of the blood. The oil must not be
swallowed, for it has become toxic. As the process continues, the oil gets thinner and
white. It is then spit from the mouth, the oral cavity must be thoroughly rinsed and mouth
must be washed thoroughly. Just use normal tap water and brush with On Guard
toothpaste.
This has in effect pulled toxins and poisons out through the mucous membranes of the
mouth to be expelled. If you use virgin coconut oil, expel into the garbage, as it can solidify
in the drain.
It is important to understand that during the oil-pulling/swishing process one's metabolism
is intensified. Many feel this leads to improved health. For many, the most striking results
of this process is the fastening of loose teeth, the healing of sores, the elimination of
bleeding gums and the visible whitening of the teeth.
The oil pulling /swishing is done best before breakfast. To accelerate the healing process, it
can be repeated three times a day, but it is always best before meals on an empty
stomach.
Remember, do not swallow. The oil should be spat out.
Per Dr. Karach, that this treatment will achieve remarkable results with illnesses like
migraine headaches, bronchitis, diseased teeth, arterio thrombosis, chronic blood disorders
such as leukemia, arthritis and related illnesses, neuro physiological paralysis, eczema,
gastro enteritis, peritonitis, heart disease, kidney disease, meningitis, and women's
hormonal disorders are completely eliminated from the organism. The benefit according to
Dr. Karach's is that the oil therapy heals the whole body in perpetuity. In terminal diseases
such as cancer, aids and chronic infections Dr. Karach reports this treatment method has
been shown to achieve astonishing results.
